# Sonoran Gold flagstone

Sonoran Gold is a flagstone with mustard yellow and brown hues, sold as regular flagstone and as a larger-size tumbled stone, used for patios, walkways and pool edges.

Both forms are sold at our Excelsior Road yard; stock changes, so call first.

Sonoran Gold Colors vary by pallet and wet vs dry. See it in the yard.

Sonoran Gold brings a sunny, earthy color to a yard. The base is a mustard yellow, and brown tones run through each piece. It works well with Mediterranean, Spanish and desert-style homes, and with warm plant palettes like lavender, rosemary and ornamental grasses. You can buy it as standard flagstone or as a larger tumbled stone. Tumbling really brings out the brown, so the two forms look related but not identical.

## The color up close

Mustard yellow is the main note, with brown hues that show more in some pieces than others. The mix keeps a large patio from looking flat.

Wet the stone to see its richer side. A sealer can hold that deeper color if you like it. Learn more in [wet look vs natural](https://midvalleyrock.com/rock-talk/wet-look-vs-natural/).

## Flagstone vs tumbled Sonoran Gold

Flagstone has natural split edges and suits patios, walkways and stepping stones.

Tumbled Sonoran Gold is a larger size tumbled stone. The machine tumbling rounds the edges and brings the brown forward, which gives an aged look. Use it for pool coping, wall caps and seating edges.

## Using both together

Many yards use flagstone in the field of a patio and tumbled pieces for the border or coping. The shared yellow ties them together while the tumbled brown adds a frame.

Bring your square footage and ask staff to help you split the order. Pricing is quoted by phone or at the yard because stone is sold by weight.

## Popular uses

### What color is Sonoran Gold?

It is mustard yellow with brown hues.

### Why does tumbled Sonoran Gold look browner?

The tumbling process brings out the brown coloring, so tumbled pieces show more brown than the flagstone.

### Is tumbled Sonoran Gold a small stone?

No. It is a larger size tumbled stone, useful for coping, caps and steps.
